I've only seen them twice. Wembley and Josephs Well. Couldn't pick which one was best, both wildly different from each other and both highly enjoyable

Hard to tell, isn't it, they're always so special.
Loved Tilburg, was delighted to see them in Lokeren, found Paris to be wonderful and the last Brussels gig was just great...
Sums it up, I guess, only left out one

Of the two I've seen, I'd go with Tilburg for the intimacy, mystery and technical brilliance (smaller venue with a tight sound and motivated crowd) and Manchester for the renewed vigour. Chris and Christo are Sisters. To me, Adam seemed to be playing a similar role to Si - admirably technically accurate, but going through the motions - despite having far more scope for creativity.

London Forum, 2000. Second date.
Didn't go, but it's still the best boot I've heard.

Can't choose so I guess all of them as they were all different.

Ahh, worst gigs - there's a topic that can keep me going for years!
That dreadful Amsterdam '03 show was worse than the dark arches gigs, if that's possible. The only '03 gig I remember being 'not boring' was the Deinze show..
The first Brixton show in '97 was also p*ss-poor, far worse than the Astoria show this year. Mera Luna in '02 also wins a prize for being generally very dull

1. 4 July 1998 Reuterstadt-Stavenhagen
2. Forum 2000 can't decide which one.
3. 12 August 2002 M'era Luna (maybe because of the funny stuff I smoked, don't know, but had a great time anyway).

Festivals:
1. Pukkelpop 1992 (the first time you know...& Sister Ray
)
2. Lokeren 2005 (majestic
)
3. Dour 1997 (semi-natural high
)
Indoors:
1. Brussels 2006, 2nd Nite (rawk'n'roll
)
2. Paris 2006 (a wonderful day,a lovely city & top people
)
3. Brussels 1998 (The Sisters for free
...& Sister Ray)
For me The Sisters are an outdoors-band.I like them best when they get to headline big alternative festivals and get lost in mist & laser. They're pretty good indoors but I always feel there's something missing there. The Sisters need to be larger than life!
and the worst:
1. Pukkelpop 2001 (the first time I witnessed the nu millenium Sisters and they made me run
)

Define what you mean by "run" here, please.
There are two interpretations.
